Jim has also purchased, operated, and sold Sierra.Net and
First Coast Online both Internet Service Providers during the
‘dot com’ boom and in 2004 launched AppState.Net, Llc, an
operating WISP focusing on the difficult multi-tenant/dwelling
markets. This year IVI Communications purchased both
corporations from Jim to leverage his experience in deploying
revenue generating, fixed broadband wireless solutions to
other their service provider acquisitions and launch
‘Lickity-Split’ a nationally branded wireless service for

His understanding of the internet industry and
knowledge of the technical and business issues, combined with
his experiences and successes in technology provide Mr. Hollis

Consultant of the Year.
Mr. Hollis has been a repeat

and brings over 25 years of business experience – these
include Tandem Computers (now HP) where he was responsible for
launching Tandem's Internet strategy. Mr. Hollis received his
Bachelor's of Science Degree in Business Education from

Clearly Mr. Hollis understands
both the challenges and operating issues of a
